Spitzbergen 2110: Weit im Norden, tief in den Bergen, liegt eine Schatzkammer, die mit Pflanzensamen aus aller Welt gefüllt ist. Tommy wächst in dieser sonst kargen, gnadenlosen Landschaft auf, mit seinen zwei Brüdern und seiner Großmutter – der Hüterin des Saatguts. Schon vor vielen Jahren hat man hier am Nordpol den Kontakt zu den anderen Ländern abgebrochen und versucht, im Einklang mit der Natur zu leben. Doch dann wird Spitzbergen von einer Katastrophe heimgesucht – und Tommys Familie gehört zu den wenigen Überlebenden.

The year is 1984. The British government has become impersonal and apathetic, not run by a particular party or corresponding ideology, but by the random selection of a new figurehead each year. When the eccentric Auberon Quin is chosen to lead the country, the nation begins to take a whimsical turn. In an attempt to liven up London, Auberon transforms the city into a mock-medieval town, complete with crests, flags and costumes. Everything is a joke–that is until Adam Wayne, a young man claiming to be the Napoleon of Notting Hill, begins to take it seriously.
